70s bush envy

It may not seem like it is, but it is. We make our own pressures in our head, if a woman wants to have hair, but the guy she is seeing does’t like it, then it’s her choice to either adapt, or keep it. I would say to a guy he can do one if he doesn’t like it lol. And same with vice versa

It's really not just down to personal choice, if a woman is dating and knows that 90% of the women her age look a particular way then there is pressure for her to conform. In the same way our hairstyles are to an extent personal choice but are massively influenced by current styles and expectations (compare your schools class photo to how the girls at your local school now wear their hair!)

It is!
The rejection of short is properly "in" at the minute so get the Schwarzkopf out 😄

Oh fuck off idiot! 🤣🤣So I've to agree with you then? Its my opinion, I'm allowed it. Away and critically think about that.

Then don't strip and have what you want. Who gives a flying fox about fashion?

I think like many have said on here is all comes down to personal preference, there are numerous different reasons why someone would want to keep it, or trim it, or shave it off. Personally I like keeping it natural but I understand that may put some people off, but it’s my body and also is what my body naturally does. I’m a pretty open person and I like that about myself

I wish the bush was back in fashion! I prefer the feeling of hair free but hate the effort and sometimes pain of maintaining it. I don't really know as I'm older, but I'm sure that men in their 20s and 30s might never even have seen one in real life!? Such a shame. I want a heart shaped one dyed pink. Lol.

You are the creep here and a bit lacking in any sort of critical thinking. A female adult woman, hairless or not, will never look like a 'wee girl', whatever she does.

Please stop with your stupidity and judgement of your pals and other women based on their pubic hair or lack thereof.

My ex boyfriend liked my bush. I find it strange that some ladies shave it off.

I've said this before on here. I had to have an emergency op to remove an ulcerated cyst. Whilst there the consultant said they had seen a real increase in women having ulcers drsined from the pubic region due to the current trend for waxing and shaving. Got chatting to the lady in the next bed and lo and behold she was having exactly that issue. In grown hair can turn very very nasty

yanbu for wanting what you want but I’d rather not

I love a bit of Gorilla Salad whilst dining out.

What started off as an interesting & amusing thread has deteriorated into a bitch-fest.

And all over...hair

Aww thank you @SocksAmnesia 💐

i don’t shave my legs so I think you’d probably feel much better if you stuck two fingers up at those who would say that you’re grim and did what was most comfortable for you.

It would be good to be that person but I’m just not, and never will be that person. I don’t want people to think I’m grim. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Some women do seem to manage perfectly well with long nails but I don’t think it could be argued that they are as practical or hygienic as short nails. Sometimes my MIL has to be assisted with tasks involving fine motor skills due to her very long nails.

And yes, infections in tooth cavities could lead to death. Untrimmed bushes, not so much 😂

When I was pregnant with DS mine grew really long. I just left it to see how long it would go. I did consider arranging it in an attractive plait. When the midwife examined me during labour she said “ooh it feels like the baby’s got some hair”. Nope, totally bald! That wasn’t the baby’s hair she’d got hold of 😂

When I was pregnant with DD this didn’t happen at all. I read afterwards it’s something to do with make hormones apparently.

…unless something has gone horribly wrong …

That's so highly subjective. Either is fine, in my book, for others. I don't shave. I did, back before waxing was a thing, and got THREE ingrown hairs. HORRIBLE, and never again. Now, I've known a man or two who said, "I won't do this, that or the other if you don't get rid of the hair." My response was, "I won't do this, that or the other, or the main event, for that matter, if you force this issue." The hair remained, and this, that and the other were done.

I feel like if I leave the hair there it gets matted/pulls a lot plus when I trim (using shaver) I always cut myself.
So Hollywood wax every 6 weeks for me, also have my eyebrows and upper lip done. Everything else gets shaven!

i don’t shave my legs so I think you’d probably feel much better if you stuck two fingers up at those who would say that you’re grim and did what was most comfortable for you.

Many women have long nails, so I don’t think practicality dictates that they need to be short.

And yes, teeth with cavities can be very painful, and become infected, and kill us without treatment - which it does in many parts of the world where people are impoverished enough to genuinely be this “all natural” that we’re advised to aspire to in the first world. 😉

Every time I've tried to remove any pubic hair I'm in mortal agony. I do trim but removing it is so not on I think personally. I'm not even sure why I tried to, peer pressure? Find it a bit creepy tbh if guys like it hairless.. my partner thinks I was mad when I tried to remove it lol..
Considering (depends on your age here lol, I'm 50) we spent so long waiting and watching for our first pube so we could be grown up, to then shave them off to look like a wee girl is kinda mad and disturbing when you think about it!
P.S I've also seen female pals while getting changed with no pubes and it gives me the boke! Ok, I'm a straight woman and shouldn't find either way fanciable lol but it's just off

Indeed.

No one needs to see any one else’s pubic area to be offended by their choices.

Keep your nose out of other people’s crotches and whether they are hairy or not need never be an issue for you.

An astounding amount of ‘you should leave it in place’ and ‘it should be removed’,
all you ‘should’ do is appreciate that you can do what you like and other people can too. No one needs to see any one else’s pubic area to be offended by their choices. Have an opinion and an interesting discussion but don’t judge people for their choice either way and everyone would get on a lot better 🤷🏼‍♀️

Nope - going down on a woman is great regardless of her approach to pruning. Hair really doesn't get in the way, I promise! As long as it's clean it's no different either way.
